The feedback on firing was really satisfying (although I would have liked some destruction effect on the drones), and the movement following the cursor felt really weighty\/inertial. That was all very excellent!\n\nSome additional challenge could have been added by perhaps limiting ammunition, or hiding the cursor during firing mode (to prevent the player from perfectly hitting distant shots).\n\nThe choice to auto-switch modes every 10 seconds was maybe not the way the game would have been designed otherwise (for example, the player might choose when to switch) -- that said, themes like this force us to implement different ideas, so I think that's worthwhile!

It already basically is if it just lasted longer. I agree with the others on the 10 seconds being a bit too long, but of course that's the theme, and it sure doesn't hurt anything.\n\nOverall, there was just so much polish and juice. The screen shake. The attack animations. The recoil. The sentry legs. The timer going down faster after you've cleared the round. The tutorial. The sound design.
